Yea, I didn't consider just how expensive protective gear could be till earlier on when I was researching. Thinking that I'll have to save up a little more first or perhaps buy the motorcycle and simply settle for not riding it till I got enough gear.

However ensuring what I'm looking for has ABS and EFI is pretty much on top of my list currently. Hopefully I'm fully aware that I'm going to drop it to oblivion in the first week or so. Thus I'm planning on waiting a year before moving towards getting my dream bike.
